About

42 years ago my Dad took up bicycle touring, and that was the start of it all for me. His passion for everything two-wheeled activated (as he puts it) the recessive family cycling gene and biking has been my main form of sport, travel, and meditation ever since. Although I love a long, slow tour I also love a fast, "red-zone" time trial just as much. It was my good fortune to meet a young woman 36 years ago who loves to bike as much as I do, and tricked her into saying "I Do." My wife Margaret is my best cycling mate and you'll find her in the journals I will slowly add to Cycle Blaze.
